I think there was a time when I considered myself a work addict, but that's no longer accurate. My life has changed so dramatically over the last number of years, especially having a family now. My priorities have shifted.

I’m not sad about any of my life. It’s so unconventional. It doesn’t look anything like I thought it would.

One of the ways I think I gain fodder for characters is by watching people.

Writers, actors, anybody working on an ensemble-type thing, there are going to be some creaks in the beginning. It seems like there's tremendous potential in just letting things sort of breathe a little bit. It's tremendously important.

I think that you do get a little extra jolt of confidence when you win an Emmy.

In my household there is an insane amount of laughter and celebration.

I don't watch a lot of television.
